| Summary/Abstract |
More than 50 years after "Agra Bazaar" was first staged by Habib Tanvir, theatre lovers in Agra say the play was a faithful chronicle of times past and the city should build a fitting memorial to the director who died June 8. Tanvir, who died in Bhopal at the age of 85, had scripted the play that catapulted him to the centre-stage of the Hindustani theatre movement, deftly weaving it around the writings of Mughal era "people's poet" Nazeer Akbarabadi.

Lights for the Blue Prince - A story of Diwali
Soumya S Ayer
This is the story of Prince Rama, the Blue One, and the heroic effort to rescue his beautiful wife from the clutches of the evil ten-headed king, Ravana. The story of Prince Rama, a jewel among men, is a popular tale that has been retold since ancient times. It is said to bring blessings on those who listen to it. It is one of the many legends associated with the celebration of Diwali, the Hindu festival of lights. From simple shadows cast on a cave wall to elaborate shadow puppetry, man has tried to tame shadows to tell a tale. This book has been inspired by shadow puppet theatre, an ancient form of storytelling, and incorporates the use of traditional Indian shadow puppets and silhouettes to tell the story.

| Summary/Abstract |
The Natyasastra purports to be a treatise on Hindu dramaturgy and histrionics, whose authorship is ascribed to Bharata-Muni, who is universally acknowledged to be legendary.
The Natyasastra is acknowledged to be the first Sanskrit work on dramaturgy. The treatise says that Bharata was the one who popularized the Natyaveda, created by Brahma, on the earth. He is also said to have collected all the material of earlier acharyas (ancient teachers) like Tumburu, Narada and Nandi and gave the Nayashastra a complete coherence by making additions, alterations and adaptations according to the requirements of time and space. It is clear from the text that later it was the sons and the followers of Bharata who transmitted the art of the theater to the world. Abhinava Gupta uses the name ̧Adi-Bharata for Bharata as the sons and the followers of Bharata were called Bharatas, the actors.

| Summary/Abstract |
Theatres of India, edited by Professor Ananda Lal, is a comprehensive and accessible guide to theatre in India. The volume surveys both rural and urban modes of Indian theatre across its history of over 2000 years. The first section brings together entries that discuss theatres of India's linguistic regions. The second section includes entries on specific forms and genres, as well as on topics such as street theatre, music, and Tagore's dramatic oeuvre. 'Theatre' in this volume is defined as any form that contains theatre's fundamental element, acting. Importantly, the entries are accompanied by photographs of performances that allow us to view the 'visual-ness' of India's performance forms.
